Audie Pitre

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Audie Pitre was an accomplished bass guitarist. He also added back-up vocals to Dax Riggs's vocals and lyrics in the band Acid Bath (1991-1997) and formed another band known as SHRUM (1995). Audie formed SHRUM with the idea to have two bass players to create a uniquely heavy, low-end bass sound. SHRUM's only CD to date is Red Devils & Purple Ringers. In January 1997, Audie Pitre and his parents were killed when they were hit head-on by a drunk driver. The driver was convicted of three counts of vehicular homicide. Audie is survived by his son, Audie Jr.
